ZTT returns to Intersolar with full-chain solar, storage, hydrogen push

Jiangsu Zhongtian Technology, better known as ZTT, used this year's Intersolar Europe in Munich to showcase an integrated "solar plus storage plus hydrogen" product line spanning cells, modules, storage systems and grid infrastructure, alongside a run of new partnership agreements across Eastern Europe.

Intersolar 2026 – LONGi goes deep on BC technology and storage integration

The company's transmission and distribution business has a track record on the continent: more than 100,000 tonnes of overhead conductors and thousands of kilometres of medium- and high-voltage cable have gone to transmission and distribution operators in Germany, Finland, Estonia, the UK, Sweden, Poland and Spain. On the generation side, ZTT's N-type TOPCon and BC modules are pitched at agrivoltaics, offshore floating PV, microgrids and building-integrated applications, while its storage systems, built on proprietary LFP cells with multi-layer battery management, range from single-digit kWh installations up to hundreds of MWh.

On the hydrogen side, ZTT's 35 MPa and 70 MPa hydrogen dispensers carry explosion-proof and German TÜV certification, and its 1,000 Nm³/h alkaline electrolyser has been certified under China's Hydrogen Energy Pioneer Programme as well as by TÜV. The company also points to what it describes as the first submersible, hydraulically driven liquid hydrogen booster pump, though it gave no further technical detail on the claim at the show.

Intersolar 2026: public and science say “yes” – politics are another matter

The Munich event produced several new commercial agreements. ZTT signed a framework procurement deal with Bulgarian firm PS Electric, extending an existing partnership with a view to expanding into neighbouring Balkan markets. It also agreed an energy storage cooperation with Greek company Technologiki E.E., took on-site orders for commercial and industrial storage cabinets from two Hungarian customers, and signed a memorandum of understanding with a European EPC company and its subsidiary.

Founded in 1992 as an optical fibre communications supplier, ZTT expanded into smart grid technology in 2002 before moving into renewable energy in 2011. (TF)
